{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** Deleting an instructor account does not delete any of the classes, lessons or exams created by that instructor. However, the lessons and exams will be "orphaned" – that is, only the account Administrator will be able to edit or delete them. The Administrator can re-assign another instructor as the "owner" by editing the lesson or exam.
